Next Chapter Meeting: Mar 21, 2012, 6:30 PM

April message from OWASP Los Angeles President

1. Hold the Date -- April 25

We are planning for 1/2 day conference on April 25 -- calling it a Mini-Summit -- starting at 3PM at a hotel on the west side (most likely in Culver City). We have at least 3 speakers and a panel discussion. The event includes food and beverages and there will be a small fee (no more than $20) to offset the cost.

Please show us love by registering. Registration will open soon on Meetup.

2. Participate in Projects

OWASP is about projects. Without projects, OWASP wouldn't exist, and projects need new blood. I would like to encourage your participation in the projects. There are many projects to choose from (link below) but testing, development and code review guides are in urgent need of help. You don't need to be a coder to contribute.

Please see what you can contribute and feel free to reach out to the project leaders directly, or send me an email if you want an introduction.

3. Call for Local Speakers

We have a lot of security talent in LA area and we would love to hear from you. Edward Bonver is leading an initiative to have local speakers more involved and present at OWASP meetings. Please reach out to him at edward@owasp.org if you're interested.

Other Events

ISSA-LA holds a lunch meeting on the 3rd Wed of each month, for more information visit www.issa-la.org.
